“Kylan Taylor, you’re despicable!” Emily Taylor stared fiercely at Kylan Taylor.
Kylan Taylor sneered, “As long as you behave and do as you’re told, not only can I let him live, but I can also give him a great opportunity!”
At this point, Kylan Taylor paused and whispered in Emily Taylor’s ear, “Don’t you want to save your grandfather? As long as you obediently do as you’re told and marry Dexter Blair, I’ll let them live out their lives in peace.”
“You think I would still believe you?” Emily Taylor sneered.
Upon hearing this, Kylan Taylor’s face became completely cold.
“Don’t think I’m begging you! I’m offering you an opportunity!” Kylan Taylor said coldly.
“Since you don’t know what’s good for you, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Having said this, Kylan Taylor turned around and walked out.
Emily Taylor’s face turned extremely pale, and she desperately wanted to know the situation outside, but under Kylan Taylor’s control, there was no way to do so.
“Could you help me, please? Can you send a message to Ethan Smith for me?” In desperation, Emily Taylor could only seek help from the Taylor family’s servants.
However, the servants were tight-lipped, and hurriedly waved their hands, “Miss Taylor, please don’t put me in a difficult position. If Mr. Taylor finds out, we’re done for…”
Ever since Kylan Taylor killed the last servant who had helped Emily, no one dared to help her anymore.
Even Emily Taylor’s own father, Hugh Taylor, didn’t dare to come to see her.
The long-term oppression weighed heavily on Emily Taylor, making her body gradually weaker.
Her face grew even paler, and she coughed from time to time.
Kylan Taylor brought a doctor to check on Emily Taylor, but nothing could be diagnosed.
Finally, the doctor concluded that Emily Taylor had a heart disease, and it was incurable.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
During this time, Ethan Smith hardly ever left the Elder’s residence.
He stuffed one Vitality Enhancing Pill after another into his mouth every day.
The excessive amount of qi made Ethan Smith’s body difficult to bear.
His entire dantian seemed like it was about to explode.
“Mr. Smith, if it’s too much for you… Just take a break.” Edward Green couldn’t bear to watch anymore.
However, Ethan Smith waved his hand and said, “I don’t have so much time to waste.”
“But… Your body won’t be able to handle it at this rate.” Edward Green sighed.
As Edward Green said, Ethan Smith, enveloped by excessive qi, looked somewhat weak, as if his physical energy had been overdrawn.
But the key point was that Ethan Smith’s dantian was expanded again and again, nearly exploding several times.
But even so, Ethan Smith showed no sign of stopping.
He did his best to control the qi, slowly circulating it within his body.
“Puff!”
At that moment, Ethan Smith’s body could no longer withstand the pressure.
He spat out a mouthful of blood. When he looked at his internal state, he could even see the cracks external to his dantian and the bloodstains.
“Mr. Smith!” Edward Green quickly ran over and helped Ethan Smith up.
Ethan Smith wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and muttered, “It seems I really need to rest for a while…”
Now, Ethan Smith had reached the Sixth Layer of the Monastic Stage.
As long as he successfully broke through the Monastic Stage within half a year, Ethan Smith was confident that he could make his way to the Capital City.
But the further the cultivation process went, the more difficult it became, and the more qi required. This was the reason why Ethan Smith couldn’t afford to waste any time.
With Edward Green’s help, Ethan Smith returned to his room.
“The Sixth Layer of the Monastic Stage, I wonder how strong I actually am.” Ethan Smith clenched his fist and muttered softly.
However, there were no suitable sparring partners in the Divine Alchemist Pavilion.
Within the Divine Alchemist Pavilion, there were either top-tier grandmasters like the Eight Law Enforcement Elders and guardians, who were too strong for Ethan Smith to match, or others who were no match for him.
“This is really troubling.” Ethan Smith mumbled to himself.
At that moment, Ethan Smith suddenly thought of someone.
That person was Mr. Snyder sent by the Taylor family!
Although he was also at the Peak Form of the Grandmaster tier, he was still somewhat weaker compared to the Law Enforcement Elders.
